Set at an altitude of 1000ft in a National Park, La Garde Freinet, a village of local historical importance, is away from the hustle and bustle of the coastal strip yet it is only 20 minutes from Port Grimaud and St Tropez. It is a most beautiful (working) village with great character and lovely (permanent) residents. There are also fetes with music and dancing in the square in the summer and markets every Sunday and Wednesday mornings. The apt is very quiet and good for sleeping. Great walking - half a mile up the hill gives you panoramic views of the Golfe de St Tropez and the Southern Alps. The Tourist Board in the village provides info and walking maps. The central shopping area - 5 minutes away, is pedestrian only: ideal for children to run around whilst you are enjoying the restaurants and cafes. Its a lovely location. For more information about the apartment, village and area, contact the owners who will provide you with details of web site address.

Notes to the rental rates

  • A £100 deposit is required when you book and the balance paid 10 weeks before arrival. There is no damage deposit as we expect our clients to treat our home in France as their own home. Regrettably we have had to increase our rates on 2008 by about just over 10% to compensate for the fall in value of GBP sterling against the euro, the currency in which we have to pay our expenses. Bath towels and sheets are provided weekly for the apartment and for this a laundry and ironing charge of £30 is made per week or £30 per 2 weeks if the client prefers to do their own mid term washing in the machine provided. A further £30 is charged for cleaning when the apartment is vacated.
  • A Welcome Food and Beverage Pack, inc milk, bread, butter, jam etc and wine, is provided so that the guest can relax before having to sort out the provisions. There are dry goods inc tea, coffee, cereals, cleaning and washing liquids in the kitchen cupboards which guests are invited to use and top up before leaving. Please bring your own beach/pool towels as the bath towels are not allowed outside the apt. We have a cot so if you want to use it please bring your own cot sheets and advise me when you make the booking. We now provide a big bag of beach toys, on the patio, to save clients with young children having to buy endless buckets, spades and fishing nets that theyleave behind when they depart. Around the pool there are sunbeds which clients are free to use.
  • In the village - 5 minutes down the hill there is small supermarket that opens 0900-1230 and from 1500-1900 hours and 2 bakers and 2 butchers.
    The apt is available over Easter, Xmas and New Year. Try Xmas skiing at Isola 2000 just 2.5 hours away.
    Arrival and departure dates for all year are negotiable as we realise that mid week flights are cheaper for our guests.
